EO missions handled by ESA
ERS 1 and 2
ERS 1 (1991 – 2000):Oceans, sea ice, cryosphere, land surface & climatology
Results Results ofof 16 years16 years ERS missions: ERS missions:
basis for long-term environmental monitoring “climate change” research results from ERS have been of relevance for IPCC
wealth of science and application results
consolidation of a large EO community
ERS 2 (1995 – still operational): (…) plus global ozone & terrestrial biosphere monitoring
ERS-2 mission• ERS-2 after 12 years mission:
technically ERS-2 is performing well, however power budget needs to be monitored
LBR station extension continues All missions fully supported; since 2006 also the classical interferometry ERS-2 SAR mission is one of the “fastest” SAR mission. Planning request in
the morning results in data on disk in the evening
• Some problems with the platform (gyroscope in 2001, tape recorder in 2003) but all instruments still functioning well engineering solutions have been developed:
- new 'gyro-less' working mode- set up of a station network for Low Bit Rate data recovery

• The proposal for the EO Envelope Programme – 3rd Period (2008-2012) includes, in its Development and Exploitation component, the provision for operating the ERS-2 satellite until 2008 and the Envisat satellite until 2010.
• The current spacecraft status allows to further extend the operations of both missions by 3-years in order to respond to the user communities demand, i.e. until 2011 for ERS-2 and until 2013 for Envisat.
• The Envisat 3-years extension requests a modification of the orbital parameters in 2010 as the on-board hydrazine will be almost completely consumed by 2010.

Envisat 3-years extension [2011-2013]
Extension scenario
. End of phase E3 (i.e. nominal mission): (56 kg ± 15 kg remaining fuel)~ October 2010
. Altitude change: -17.4 km (~34 kg needed fuel)
. Phase E4 (i.e. “extended” mission): (22 kg ± 15 kg available fuel)
. Repeat cycle: 30 days / 431 orbits
. Orbit control: altitude only, inclination drift
. MLST variation: first, 22:00 to 22:10, then 22:10 to 21:50
. Artemis availability expected up to 2013 (to be confirmed with Artemis team)
. End of phase E4: ~ mid 2014 (00 kg ± 15 kg remaining fuel)

A constant objective: ease access to Earth Observation data
Common objective for all missions data handled by ESA:Envisat, ERS, Earth Explorers, and Third Party Missions (e.g. ALOS, SPOT-4, PROBA, …)
Simplified data application procedures for Category 1 use
Internet access to all Near Real Time (NRT) data
Internet access to archived data gradually implemented (new dataset, new access systems)
Development of alternative ways to provide data (e.g. processing on demand, toolboxes)
Facilitating access to Earth Observation data
the recent results of Envisat Symposium demonstrated that ESA EO data access has largely improved during the last years.
